Nathan Clark Posted December 10, 2020 at 12:38 AM Posted December 10, 2020 at 12:38 AM When I try to connect to xpilot it wont let me press connect. Does anybody have any answers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Shearman Jr Posted December 10, 2020 at 10:06 PM Posted December 10, 2020 at 10:06 PM "Waiting for X-Plane connection..." is your clue. It hasn't detected your simulator running. Sometimes this can be solved by a simple close-and-restart of xPilot, and other times this means something has gone wrong during the install process, including possibly that the in-sim "plugin" portion failed to install or failed to initialize. If a simple restart of the sim or the client doesn't help, and reinstalling xPilot doesn't change the situation, please report back. Cheers, -R.

Lauri Uusitalo Posted December 14, 2020 at 08:15 AM Posted December 14, 2020 at 08:15 AM Check that you have xpilot plugin installed in X-plane. If not, re-install xpilot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick oneill Posted May 19, 2021 at 01:28 AM Posted May 19, 2021 at 01:28 AM I have to close and reopen xpilot about 12 or 15 times for it to finally recognize Xplane is running and it connects. This started recently; for years I never had this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agnes Rodriguez Posted May 28, 2021 at 03:45 PM Posted May 28, 2021 at 03:45 PM I uninstalled/reinstalled Xpilot several times but still I am having the same issue. I also tried to close and reopen Xpilot more than 10 times already but it's not resolved. Please help. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vadim Chverkun Posted February 20, 2022 at 10:56 AM Posted February 20, 2022 at 10:56 AM I have same problem. Has anybody solved it? I have been reinstalling xPilot, but the "connect" button was not active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrell Arview Posted September 13, 2022 at 02:00 PM Posted September 13, 2022 at 02:00 PM i up graded mine and have never had problems connecting to vatsim before and yes my connect button is blacked out. I still have settings and flightplan buttons and they work fine, but no way to connect. Not sure if its because of the new xplane 12 that i have not upgraded to or not.

Tim Waldon Posted September 13, 2022 at 02:26 PM Posted September 13, 2022 at 02:26 PM Hello Darrell, The xPilot client update process installs the plugin for XP12, which you don't have yet. That plugin won't work for XP11 which is why the connect button is not available. So, since the new (XP12) plugin got installed into your XP11 directory, you'll need to re-download and install the version for XP11 from the xPilot website. This will get your client working again.
